Is there any real advantage to using 64 bit when I am right at the 4gb ram threshhold? Nice plans to add more ram.
The machine will just be a backup machie (rsync).
Thanks in advance.
These days I'd do all servers and development boxes 64-bit and only deploy 32-bit for end-user workstations.
The VM management and file system management advantages are real no matter how much memory you have and the 32-bit support is perfect so there is no need to go 32-bit at all.
